BC's Auditor General highlights need to prevent fraud in BC PNP program
BY , Jun 2, 2020 11:59 PM - REPORT AN ERRORBC's Auditor General has issued a new report examining an immigration program that attracts and retains immigrants to help the province meet labour market needs and build the economy.
The report finds the B-C Provincial Nominee Program fills labour gaps but needs better safeguards against fraud.
It says B-C has done a good job finding nominees to bring to the province to fill vacancies, and more than 90 per cent of those nominees are still employed.
But it says despite safeguards to protect against fraudulent activity within the program, the Jobs Ministry has not assessed all the potential fraud risks and has not imposed, or monitored, all available safeguards.
